(Tower of Babel)
Answers In Genesis, the ministry that built the astonishing Ark Encounter in northern Kentucky which was a replica of the biblical Noah’s Ark, is set to build a replica of the ancient Tower of Babel adjacent to it.
On the Answers In Genesis website, the ministry explained: "As he had done to Adam and Eve (Genesis 1:28), the Lord blessed Noah and his family and instructed them to be fruitful, multiply, and fill the earth (Genesis 9:1). While Noah's descendants multiplied, they refused to fill the earth. Instead, they decided to stick together and gathered in a place called Shinar.
‘’Refusing to scatter and desiring to make a name for themselves, they began to build a city and a tower with a top "in the heavens" (Genesis 11:4). God confused their language to keep them from communicating about their rebellious plans, forcing them to eventually scatter and ‘fill the earth.’"
In addition, the ministry said that the aim of the Babel project is not to exalt that rebellion but to exalt God and give insight to matters that are facing the society today, especially racism. They also want to know if the biblical view of human beings rule or the evolutionary theory
"Our culture has been inundated by false views of our origins, teaching that we evolved from ape-like ancestors. While most evolutionists are probably not racists, the philosophy they hold is inherently racist, implying that some people groups are more closely related to apes than others," said Answers in Genesis.
